For a third it may have been worth it although I think Adams best days are behind him. Hed still be better than anyone on the steelers roster though.
OT: Justin Fields
- Thread starter mike 301
- Start date
Regardless of what happens, people will overreact like they do from week to week.
Oh…and Russ will still be throwing to the same guys who get no separation.
And will be running around like his hair is on fire behind this OL.
NFL is just a poor product right now. Unless you have one of like five quarterbacks in the league, you just play Tomlin ball and turn everything into a 21-18 slapping contest.
it really is. i watched the 1pm game, browns vs eagles (Because pittsburgh didnt get the ravens - redskins game) and it was brutal, i mean it hurt me to watch it. was over my neighbors, and just absolutely hurt me physically, mentally and emotionally to sit 3 hours and watch that freakin abortion of a game,waiting for the steelers..
i think the biggest place we'll miss Fields this sunday is in red zone. how many times did his running bail us out and get us 6 points?
It's bad, man. Even Steeler games are kind of background noise for me now. Like I took a nap at halftime thinking "if I wake up I wake up; If I don't I don't." It's better than nothing, obviously, but I really do feel like I watch out of habit. I only enjoy it when I'm with other people who actually care and there are some drinks involved.
College football, on the other hand is an event for me. Starts with GameDay and ends late at night. I'm checking in on games and flipping through channels all day.
the pitt vs Cal game last week was pretty much the equivalent of every single steeler game i've watched for the last 3 years. Just Boring AF and hoping for the clock to hurry up and the game can be over so i can get on with my day..
but that pitt game was an anomaly and i agree, college football all day is awesome. even last saturday with the oregon/tosu game and even the colorado game at like midnight.
Pretty sure Russ’s red zone TDs were really good, even last year. Let’s just hope that they get there. Haha. Hate to bring up the dreaded “P” word…but Russ and Fields are both an upgrade over Kenny there.
this fear of mine is more of a knock on the steelers' offensive players and play calling than it is a knock on Wilson.
any of our success offensively, well most of it anyways, came from Fields either taking off, avoiding the rush and moving, etc. we lose that. On flip side, Wilson SHOULD be much better in the pocket.
again, who knows, this could be a good move. im sure we will all have opinions on the matter monday morning..
Oh absolutely. It was actually something different for Pitt, so I enjoyed it. But that's damn near every Steeler game.
College just has so many more styles of play clashing. And it doesn't look like the players are too big/strong/fast for the field they're playing on like the NFL does. And if one game sucks, I'll pick from any of the five others on TV. And I don't have to see the same. damn. people game after game, year after year. And it's not championship or bust - at least not for most teams. Just better entertainment value, in my opinion, even with its many faults.

Oh no. The Steelers are going to overpay. They don't have an out with him and there isn't a backup plan. He's played well enough that people are talking about how he's saved his career and they won't be low enough to draft a starter. Fields is the guy whether he's worth it or not.
Well I don't think they would bench him/mess with his confidence, with him having a half-decent 4-2 record and coming off a 32-13 win, if they thought he was the future.
JK, lol. This franchise would totally do that.
nah
You like to blame the only legit receiver for fields problems .
Repetitively .
Because you’re baked in .
Fields isn’t THE problem (a lack of weapons and OL run blocking )- but he is A problem .
The only receiver likewise is not remotely anything close to a problem .
By the way Dionte seems to be a WR1 after all .
Would be nice to have him , instead of the $10mil in cap space being unused .
Or maybe it’s because passing for 150 yards being 20th on offensive scoring maybe means it’s worth trying the vet qb who’s career fields can only hope to touch?
Other than degenerate gamblers who the hell was excited for last nights jets bills game? Even with marquee qbs it’s still a boring matchup
i had Allen and George WIlson on my fantasy team, needed both to score decent to win and i still didnt watch it. Been doing outer banks season 3 with my son.
also watching this survival show on netflix, not "alone" but the one with 4 teams. it's ok, all these survivor shows are kind of the same thing. they are all cold, all hungry, they eat squirrels and it takes them 4 days to start a fire, yet i still watch them so maybe im the problem..
but dont worry, they both did well and my FF team won.
Yeah, of course. Kenny was better last year in the same offense (except a worse line, and Canada).
Every freakin day on here. every single F'in day, kenny pickett blah blah blah blah.
Dude I’m with ya. Like FK my only point was the talent and coaching around him were so bad that the jury was out on how good or bad he is. Same goes with FieldsEvery freakin day on here. every single F'in day, kenny pickett blah blah blah blah.
But I’m so sick of his name coming up in every convo regarding the Steelers putrid offense this year. Like I said he’s not even all that likeable or a standup guy like Rudy is
It actually detracts for the core issue which is Tomlin and his inability to hire a good OC and develop a upper level offense to go along with a decent but over rated defense
How’d Dionte and George help Kenny? Granted Kenny didnt have them both at the same time for more than a handful of games but if they were what you guys claim they are, I suspect our QBs the past two years would be better. Kenny and Fields are below average throwers at this point in their careers and due to oline problems and weak offensive scheme and coaching, they could use dependable receivers, but Dionte and George ain’t them.
